*Unanticipated is the domain swapping and crossover that occurs between the subunits interactions.

*Considering each chain, there is crossover as the pairs of subunits seen in the ATD are swapped in the LBD.

*As explored further in [[#Transmembrane domain architecture and the occluded pore|a later section below]] , the <scene name='User:Wayne_Decatur/Sandbox_Glutamate_receptor/Tmd_domain_4fold/2'>symmetry is an overall four-fold for the TMD</scene> and thus remarkably the symmetry switches from an overall two-fold symmetry for the ATD and LBD to four-fold for the TMD.
